This is the the quote I've been citing a lot recently.

Let’s talk politics.

Is it really under control?

It’s glory and Honor at Man United💥❤️💪🏻

I hope it stays permanent!❤️

Spite. It was a Champions League match. Chelsea vs Manchester United. My entire family, cousins and all, were supporting Chelsea. I just wanted to be different, so I picked Manchester United. No deep reason. Just that. They won. And I remember sitting there, the only happy person in the room, watching everyone's faces fall. Something about that felt so good; I never let it go. Except somewhere along the way, it stopped being a joke. I kept watching, and without realising it, the club just became mine. Now, when they lose, it genuinely hurts. It actually stings. Wallahi. The kind of feeling you don't expect to have over a football match until you're already in too deep to explain it to anyone. What started as me being stubborn turned into something I'd never trade. Funny how that works. Manchester United for life! ☺️

Here's my digital twist on the famous "I call on" game. Added a customization feature, for your private game rooms. That way you get to choose your own categories, and even choose a subset of the letters if you want. More updates soon. Try it: icallon.netlify.app

Two truths can coexist. Everyone is angry. Everyone wants what’s best for the country. Nobody is saying you can’t make videos in public,but people have the right to tell you if they don’t want their faces in your videos. It’s really not that hard.

Just to be clear, I have no problem with her advocacy. She started filming people to overcome her social anxiety (according to her), but if she discovered her activist side in the process, that’s fine. The issue is that many people in her videos tell her not to film their faces, yet she still uploads the videos online without blurring them.

I had an offer from an incredibly well-funded startup in early 2020 ($150M+ raised). I was supposed to join their ML team in April. I had already resigned and was serving my notice when COVID hit. HR called and said they were deferring my offer. Assured me the offer was safe and that they just wanted me to join once offices reopened. For the next couple of months we stayed in touch. Every conversation repeated the same thing: the offer is safe. The market was dead, so I spent the time doing research with an ex-advisor. We finally set my joining date: June 1st. In the last two weeks of May I had multiple calls with my future manager. We discussed MacBook configs, projects I’d work on, brainstormed approaches. I even shared my shipping address for the laptop. Two days before joining they rescinded the offer. That day I learned something important: Your employer will not hesitate to rescind an offer or lay you off if it benefits them. You shouldn’t feel guilty about optimizing for yourself either. Everyone is optimizing for their own interests. It’s a ruthless market. An employer has 100 / 1000 / 10000 employees. You only have one job.

Hear me out. Crazy idea. What if we took one billion and just… did some good. Right now. Instead of investing it in AI to maybe do some good one day.

This was how she started between, shes has been doing it back to back and alot of people have called her to stop filming them or blur their faces whenever she films them, she didn’t listen. She even goes as far as filming people picking their nose and eating Imagine you come online and you see your dad picking nose in BRT in a content creator’s page on tik tok..? How will you feel..? Lmao They told her to stop she rather turned it to a protest by starting the shitty “ bus scarcity”so she will look for a way to gain the support of masses and continue filming people unprovoked, We all know what we are doing in this country. She was filming someone the woman got angry and she started playing the victim card. Una no real at all

Since nobody wants to tell her the truth I will tell her, she is a clout chaser!!! She started first as “I am trying to kill my social anxiety” so she wakes up early in the morning and carry her phone to film people who are in queue unprovoked She did the first one people laughed and applauded her for beating social anxiety she continued doing it and a lot of people started getting calls that they saw them in a video queuing for BRT, some people who saw themselves in her video told her to blur their faces next time but she turned deaf ears, because she’s getting the TikTok engagements already, it’s no longer about beating social anxiety anymore..!! So she turned it to “I’m fighting the government” when people started complaining too much about seeing themselves on someone’s video on TikTok! There are better ways to protest to the government, why will i just wake up one morning and see my face on TikTok, it’s wrong and there are better ways to do things

Because effort matters to me… I want to also feel special, I want to also have someone go out of their way to plan an outing that’ll make me happy, I want to also have someone think of things to do to make me feel special cos I too deserve to be loved with her actions, it’s never been a gender role. I initiate, you initiate, both of us feel loved and special, that’s how it should be

Did you hear about the guy that deleted his Instagram because he saw a picture from the top of Mount Everest? 🏔️ Gabriel Basso spoke about why he did this, saying: 💬 "It pissed me off to know that the guy stepped over literal bodies to see that view, and now I was seeing it from my couch. It bothered me that I had that image in my head now without any effort" 💬 This really struck me because it made me realise that we are so desensitised to having access to information and experiences without having to put in any effort. Many years ago, it would be impossible to see a view from the top of Mount Everest without having to literally climb it yourself. It would be impossible to have certain experiences without putting in the work to actually be there. But over time, this "barrier of entry" has slowly been chipped away. Now, this in itself isn't a bad thing, I'm not in any way trying to claim that modern photography is a net negative on society. But it's worth reflecting on how this new reality impacts our psychology. Nowadays, we get to reap rewards without having to sow. And there is a real negative effect that this has on us and our ability to reap. To do hard things. The best way I can describe it is that it is now so much more difficult to struggle through a hard thing. Weirdly, we think that doing a hard thing should either be easy for us from the start, or get easier pretty linearly and quickly over time. But in reality, struggle isn't linear. You have to consistently put in effort, and yes it does get easier over time, but not linearly or as quickly as we expect. The only solution to this problem is to flex that muscle of struggling and doing hard things as often as possible. Because struggling does actually get easier the more you do it. I've seen this with my running journey. When I go on a long run first thing on a Monday morning, I feel like there is nothing I can't handle for the rest of the week. So go do a hard thing today! 💪🏾
